Description
PLC for Hydraulic Press Machines
The SCPL Hydraulic Press Machine Controller with a 7-inch Color Touch Screen offers flexible machine operation and configurable control functions for different hydraulic press applications. Operators can configure individual functions, select suitable control methods, and define operating parameters according to the machine design and process requirements.
Machine Movement Control
The controller supports the following machine movements and operations for Single or Double Stations:
- Main Mould Open/Close
- Middle Mould Open/Close
- Top Mould Open/Close
- Top Core In/Out
- Bottom Core In/Out
- Insert In/Out
- Slide In/Out
- Ejector Up/Down
- Vacuum Up/Down
- Hydraulic Pressure Up
- Bumping
- Additional customized hydraulic movements as required
Function Enable/Disable Selection
Individual machine functions can be configured as Enabled or Disabled according to the machine configuration and production requirements.
Position-Based Control
Position-based control allows machine movements to operate according to configured position settings and feedback signals.
Input-Based Control
Input selection and monitoring support the use of field sensors and machine feedback signals.
Pressure and Flow Control
The controller can be configured for pressure- and flow-related control methods according to the hydraulic system and available hardware.
Timer-Based Control
Timer-based settings provide flexibility for operations requiring a defined time duration or delay.
Programmable Sequence Control
The controller combines configurable movement functions with position, input, pressure/flow, and timer-based conditions to create a machine-specific operating sequence.
This flexibility helps manufacturers configure the controller for different hydraulic press designs, moulding processes, and special-purpose machine applications.
-
Single / Double Station Selection
The controller supports Single Station and Double Station operation, depending on the machine configuration.
-
Temperature Control and Monitoring
The temperature function supports temperature-related process requirements in hydraulic press and moulding applications.
- Temperature monitoring for connected heating zones.
- Temperature setpoint configuration.
- Integration with suitable temperature sensors and heating control outputs.
- Support for temperature-based process conditions and interlocks, where configured.
-
Bumping Function – Up to 10 Selectable Shots
The Bumping Function provides repeated, controlled movement cycles to support applications that require successive pressing or moulding actions.
Benefits for Machine Manufacturers
- Centralised control through a 7-inch colour touch screen.
- Configurable functions for different machine designs.
- Flexible selection of position, input, pressure/flow and timer-based control.
- Simplified machine setup and parameter adjustment.
- Support for customised operating sequences and process requirements.
- Scope for machine-specific alarms, interlocks, and diagnostics.
